In Reader’s Digest’s Weekly Reader Publishing Group, the company is exiting two businesses that serve the library market. Their World Almanac Education Library Services “will close by the end of this fiscal year.” Gareth Stevens Publishing is being offered for sale through Broadwater & Associates. The two businesses formerly were part of WRC Media, a company that was integrated into Reader’s Digest in 2007 when it was acquired by investors led by Ripplewood Holdings.
